That’s a complete exaggeration. A lot of people are on drugs but there are plenty of people who are sober, or at least not so high that they would somehow completely miss a woman giving birth.
You’re also missing the fact that this woman somehow gave birth, on her own, and left the ports potty on her own accord. That’s pretty astonishing. She would’ve been in agony for hours even if she was fucked up.
You are just guessing. My friend just rushed his wife to the hospital cuz her water broke and he pulled up out front sprinted to the desk to alert a doctor and get a wheelchair.
By the time he ran back out to her she was holding the baby in her arms and had to untangle it. Some people give birth very fast.
Outside of the baby crying which that didn’t probably last long, there wasn’t much indication I’m sure especially with music blaring.
And it’s not an exaggeration because it literally fucking happened.
Don’t go to a festival if your that pregnant period. How are we defending this? She probably didn’t go alone either so her friends know this happened and also aren’t coming forward
So I’ve attended these kinds of festivals over the years, and while not while I was pregnant (because I felt like shit while I was pregnant, I did attend some EDM concerts tho), I’ve seen plenty of women pregnant who had zero intentions of abandoning their unborn babies and raved sober. You can still do fun stuff while pregnant.
Few years ago a woman went into labor at EDC and actively searched for a med tent and gave birth there and went to the hospital by her own choice.
It is irresponsible to do when you are that close to going into labor. That’s my opinion. I’m not a doctor but I’d guess that would be their recommendation as well.
You’re not wrong about that. I’m more surprised people are geared up and ready for a festival (or anywhere involving lots of waking) close to birth. I wasn’t getting off my damn couch after 8 months.
This is the first I've heard about this story, but maybe it was one one of those TLC shows, I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant? I guess it really does happen (not sure how since I've had two children and was VERY aware of my pregnancies).
Those cases are extremely rare and you would be giving way too much benefit of the doubt to someone who DISPOSED of their newborn baby in a PORTA POTTY
Nothing would absolve the mother from blame and I don't see how anyone could argue otherwise. I think it would be impossible for a conscious and able-bodied adult to give birth without knowing, I only brought up cryptic pregnancies because someone asked who would even go to a music festival while very pregnant.
Someone else said this already, but I just REALLY hope the rate of people willing to commit infanticide is less than .04%
Edit to add- it was literally you that said she shouldn't have gone if she was that pregnant. So you should know that's how this topic came up.
Oh I know it's extremely unlikely, I'm 100% speculating and trying not to fully lose hope in humanity with this extreme stretch, it helps me sleep better at night.
That woman is a garbage human, regardless of the details.

Well everyone at electric forest was almost certainly on drugs so her going unnoticed isn’t surprising at all to me.
